2010年客家基本法創設「客家文化重點發展區」新制，與1945年即有的原住民行政區，形成「客家及原住民複合行政區」。客家及原住民族群性法律，諸如客家基本法、原住民族基本法、原住民身分法、原住民族語言發展法、國家語言發展法草案等，同時施行於「客原複合行政區」所生的法規競合及實作，為「客原族群治理」制度性機制實踐之重要議題。本子計畫規劃三年期，就花蓮縣「高客家人口比例」（鳳林鎮、富里鄉）及「低客家人口比例」（光復鄉、花蓮市）之兩類型「客原複合行政區」為場域，以「制度安排對客原族群治理之影響」為問題意識，承襲總計劃「制度」設計與族群「行為」互動影響之分析架構，運用族群政治及法律位階理論，以文獻分析法、深度訪談法等研究法，除探討政府「由上而下」以「制度」性機制（法律、法規命令、行政措施）對族群「行為」之影響及形塑效果外，並深究族群性法律及政治參與性法律（地方制度法、公職人員選舉罷免法），施行於客原複合行政區所產生的制度競合，俾以進行族群治理機制之比較性研究。又本子計畫運用公共政策相關理論，建構客原複合行政區的政策問題，並運用政策備選方案的篩選原則，輔以焦點座談研究法，收斂數個備選方案為一個可行的政策建議。 ;In 2010, the Taiwan government enacted the “Hakka Basic Act” and introduced “major Hakka cultural areas”. Some of the new “major Hakka cultural areas” overlapped in territory with certain indigenous districts that had existed in Taiwan since 1945, and therefore were combined with the latter to become known as “Hakka-indigenous complex administrative districts”. The ethnic Acts which includes the Hakka Basic Ac, Indigenous Peoples Basic Act, Status Act for Indigenous Peoples, Indigenous Languages Development Act, and draft National Language Development Act apply in the Hakka-indigenous complex administrative districts. The legal concurrence and practice of the ethnic Acts, which perform in the Hakka-indigenous complex administrative districts, are the important issue of the ethnic governance between Hakka and indigenous peoples. This three-year project aims to examine the influence of the institutional arrangement on the ethnic governance between high Hakka population areas (located in Fonglin Township and Fuli Township) and low Hakka population areas (located in Guangfu Township and Hualien City) in Hualien County’s Hakka-indigenous complex administrative districts. Under the integrated research project’s framework for discussing the interactivity between institution and behavior, the project employs theories of ethnic politics and legal hierarchy, as well as research methods such as literature review and in-depth interviews to explore the influence of institutional mechanism such as Acts, regulation, and administrative orders intervention on ethnic behavior. In order to do the research on comparative ethnic governance, the project analyzes legal concurrence of the ethnic Acts and political participatory Acts (like the Local Government Act, and Civil Servants Election and Recall Act) implement in the Hakka-indigenous complex administrative districts. In addition, policy issues surrounding Hakka-indigenous complex districts are rigorously constructed in this project based on public policy-related theories. Drawing on focus group discussions and the principles for screening policy options, this project proposes one solid, feasible policy recommendation out of several options.
